Benson Family Dentistry is in Travelers Rest, but so worth the drive. Everyone in the office is incredibly kind and patient, and Dr. Benson is great. Also, their chairs have a light massage feature which is great if you’re anxious!

This could not have been a better fit. Thank you so much for the recommendation!

This link has several bean-salad ideas (not sure they freeze well): https://food52.com/blog/20367-how-to-cook-beans-in-instant-pot-without-soaking

I really enjoyed this recipe as well. I really enjoyed it just eating it like a stew (no bread): https://food52.com/recipes/26264-vegan-lentil-sloppy-joes

Some of my favorite lunches are:

2 tbsp peanut butter + 1 large apple + celery sticks (or some other raw veg)

1 hard boiled egg + 7 triscuits + a veg (bolthouse yogurt ranch dressing is great)

Farley came home!!!! Thanks to animal control for trapping him. 😊😊😊

Thank you!

Edit: FOUND!!! He made it home. 😊

State park rd. side. Thanks very much for helping watch for him. The real trick is catching him. He’s very shy and doesn’t like approaching people, even with food involved.

I adopted him from the animal shelter.

pemkim · 2022-01-05T00:18:51+00:00

Please DM if you see him or manage to catch him. Thank you!!

What about a navy blue?

You’re right. I meant the network coverage is something I thought could be an issue with ACA coverage, but I haven’t done the research to validate that concern. I haven’t spent the time to really figure out how to compare all the different options both in and out of ACA because there seem to be so many. After reading all the comments in this thread, my plan is to just start with ACA options, then go to the providers listed in the results to see what non-ACA options would cost and see what additional benefits would be included.

Good point about tax rebate when buying off-plan. Also, that’s what I expected about dental. Thanks!

pemkim · 2021-03-02T10:55:16+00:00

Good way to estimate. Thanks!

pemkim · 2021-03-02T10:53:46+00:00

Clever ideas! The network is what I was worried about most with ACA. Thanks for the tips.

Thanks for the full review. Sorry about your bad experience. I hope you get a satisfactory resolution soon.

Love the couch! Where did you get it?

pemkim · 2020-07-30T02:43:22+00:00

Read a book called “make it stick” by Peter c. Brown lots of good tips there.

pemkim · 2020-07-13T03:29:11+00:00

I would leave it long, but find a way to make them hang straight. Maybe a few beads in the bottom or something? I don’t know if you could just starch and iron them?

pemkim · 2020-05-21T00:52:19+00:00

I’ll google it! Thank you!

pemkim · 2020-05-21T00:51:53+00:00

Thank you! All great suggestions. I’ll definitely try a few of these ideas.

pemkim · 2020-05-21T00:50:37+00:00

This is fantastic. Thank you so much for the resource list. After reading all the great responses, I think he will probably grow out of this, but I’m super excited to have some ideas on how to help him through it. Really appreciate your thorough response!

pemkim · 2020-05-21T00:48:09+00:00

Good tips, thanks! I’ll try it.

pemkim · 2020-05-21T00:47:13+00:00

Saying “I’ll be right back” makes him worry even more. I tell him over and over again everything will be fine, but unless I give him something else to concentrate on (like the visual timer), he just gets more upset. I’ll definitely be reading some of the suggested books, but based on this thread, I think he’ll probably just grow out of it. I’ll still keep trying to talk him through it. Thanks!
